10 When you require from your neighbor anything that he owes to you, you shall not enter into his house in order to take away the collateral.
11 Instead, you shall stand outside, and he will carry out to you what he has.
12 But if he is poor, then the collateral shall not remain with you through the night.
13 Instead, you shall return it to him promptly, before the setting of the sun, so that, sleeping in his own garment, he may bless you, and you may have justice in the presence of the Lord your God.
14 You shall not refuse the pay of the indigent and the poor, whether he is your brother, or he is a new arrival who dwells with you in the land and is within your gates.
